How do you feel about your phone microphone picking up things that day and later sending advertisement for it?

Question

I see so many videos on social media about how people will be speaking about a particularly subject, such as umbrellas, and when they go on their phone, all they see is advertising for umbrellas. How do you feel about your phone being able to track and store data as you speak with your phone around? ￼

Answer

I hate this so much!! I’ve turned off all ‘targeted advertising’ microphone access, no Siri, everything I can possibly do and a still.. this happens. It’s disgusting. Want to use your phone? Sure.. but we’re going to listen in against your will

Answer

Yes. Sometimes it’ll be a conversation with someone about something I don’t want on my phone recommended to me. So annoying.

Answer

I've never experienced this.

Answer

Hey if you didnt know when you bought a smart phone then get rid of it. Its just part of the technology now and it does come in handy. How do you think gps knows what toads are busy? Or if a store is busy? Also i have had great finds with a targeted add, i was telling my husband we needed a new swaddle but in our town we dont have many baby shops. Later that day i see an add for a shop in our town that sells baby swaddles! It comes in handy and honestly dont mind

Answer

I think what bothers me is the people who are like, OMG i was talking about a double sided dildo last night and bam im seeing ads the government is listening wahhh. Like. Yes. You give your phone permission to listen to you and babe your dildo preferences are filtered out of government radar.... companies just want to... advertise to you... what youre looking for...

Answer

I have never had this happen to me.

Answer

Honestly I don’t care at all. We’re advertised to all day long, everywhere we look. I guess I’ve just accepted it

Answer

This is nothing new. Your gps is constantly on, the microphone and camera are as well. Smartphones are very invasive. They track everything you search as well, for data & marketing.

Answer

Yes . Me and my friend were talking about putting aluminum foil in a air fryer . So I’m like I’ll just look it up on google .. all I typed was “can you put a.. “ & the first thing that popped up was “can you put aluminum foil in the air fryer” we both were shook🤯 bc it’s sooo many things if could’ve popped up from “can you put a”  but yet it guess exactlyyy what we were talking about.
